I have a question.
I have partition for home with directory "abc". So /home/abc
If I will reinstall Ubuntu and create the same user "abc" my data will be OK? Will this folder be cleared and created again?

Thanks #bobince, if it is a SEPARATE partition, no problem. If you are trying to install over that partition it is going to get wiped.

We have a Debain server, and we have our database on this server. I would like to see which partition the database resides in. Is there any way i can do this?
Mysql is default running of /var/lib/mysql. To find which partition, you could easily run
df /var/lib/mysql
from your shell. If it's not there you will get an error and we will have to search a little more. but lets start with a lazy long shot.

I have downloaded this free set of 80 standard fonts, but I'm not sure how to install it in my Linux box (CentOS 5.4). Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!
Here's CentOS's font guide.
Basically, you unzip the fonts into /usr/share/fonts/local (creating the folder if necessary), then call fc-cache /usr/share/fonts/local.

What is the use of creating a Hardlink and a softlink ? In what kind of scenarios do we create them ?
This has been discussed in length on sites that are more appropriate for this question.
When would creating a hard link be useful?
What is the difference between a soft (symbolic) link and a hard link?
